Cubs Bring A Friend Night Feb 2013

On the 28th of February the Cubs held a bring a friend night. 

At the parade they introduced themselves and their friend to the pack.

 
 The flag was broken and the evening began.
 There were craft activities where they could make either pirate or princess paraphernalia:

Although at times it looked more like a hospital ward.
 
 They then were broken up into three teams and had a race to find the hidden treasure (Easter Eggs) in the sandpit:
 
 
 Once the eggs were found they were returned to be counted:
 And a winning group was decided:

 The group then formed a circle:
 Where they rolled a dice and if they got a six..
 They got to go up and cut off some chocolate:
 At the end of the evening two Joeys were invested as Cubs
 Also two new chums were also invested as Cubs:
 The Sixers then led a "woof" to welcome the new Cubs
 Finally the flag was lowered and the evening came to a close.
